This gets worse for Sir Keir Starmer.

In a couple of years, second, third, fourth, and fifth will be swapping from poll to poll with all of them in the 13-18% range. This gives Green the three Manchester seats.

Your Party will focus on high profile/front bench seats.

That's what I think, anyway
➡️ Reform lead by 16%, their largest ever advantage in an opinion poll.

This would give them 407 seats on the custom nowcast model, a majority of 164.

Just take a moment to enjoy the fact the hypocritical bit is 'overseas'.
Nothing says patriotic man of the people quite like taking up to £10k a month from overseas fascists

worst prime minister of my entire life. just a dreadful, evil, child-abusing scumbag.
Today I welcomed the Prime Minister to Putney, where he announced the Government’s plans to keep children safe online.

In the next episode their heads will have been shaven
As the PM orders an investigation into a Labour think tank after it sought to dig up dirt on journalists, are we “coming perilously close to putting a totalitarian thumb on a free press”?

Middle England craves the boot—why Keir Starmer's government must conquer its competence issue and liberate us from democracy.

Sir Keir Starmer is two of the wise monkeys in an ill fitting suit
Keir Starmer has claimed that he 'didn’t know anything about' a prominent Labour think tank paying for an investigation into journalists reporting on its funding
Keir Starmer denies knowing about Labour think tank 'spying on journalists'

OK everyone, please remember to pile on respecting the hierarchy Sandy has generously provided. Anyone from 1-6 first, then literally everyone else on top of them.
What grounds do you have to criticize me and a doctor calling for social media ban for kids under 18:
1) Are you a doctor?
2) Are you a journalist?
3) Do you have frontline experience helping kids?
4) Do you have a name/job?
5) Do you have a rational argument?
6) Are you an amusing insult comedian?

Sandy, you'll be tempted, in the face of widespread derision and unkindness, to just let this slide and withdraw from the conversation. I implore you not to do so. You can post through this.

I believe in you.

"It took the conservative Tory Party a decade to end up neck and neck with Reform UK, a far-right party led by known Russian asset Nigel Farage. It took the Starmer-led Labour Party much less time to alienate the many UK voters who want nothing more than a major party to stand up to the fascists"

what's funny to me is that starmer's labour is actually what reform voters want.

absurdly bigoted with very mild economic policies in terms of things like employment rights.

but they're so brain-melted by x and gb news they think labour are 'woke' commies and marxists.

I think he’s pretty much what he looks like: a reliable and not overly curious One Of The Lads with odd ideas about what is right and proper for public officials, and the level of respect and deference they should automatically receive. Basically a balloon on a stick, with a face drawn on it.

Morgan, I just don’t understand why you’re so angry about this. Mr Forde will investigate and swiftly confirm that nothing weird happened and everything was above board, just like you say it was. Why, look at you, you’re practically vibrating. Can someone get Morgan a glass of water, please.

In fairness, I don’t think we can understand Sir Keir instructing the Forde investigation unless he was basically clueless about the shenanigans and just assumed they’d find little or no wrongdoing by his own staff. I could easily believe he personally is still oblivious to all this stuff.
